Overview

• Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Susan J. DeWitt found Shriner eligible and suitable for mental health diversion, a ruling prosecutors did not oppose.
• Under the order, Shriner must abstain from drugs and alcohol, attend weekly therapy, submit to random testing, participate in three Alcoholics Anonymous meetings each week, and possess no firearms or knives.
• The court set quarterly progress reporting, with a check-in hearing scheduled for Jan. 9 in downtown Los Angeles.
• Shriner was charged in May with assault with a semiautomatic firearm and grossly negligent discharge after an April encounter in Eagle Rock in which police say she fired at officers searching for hit-and-run suspects.
• LAPD has released body-worn and home-surveillance video and reported recovering a 9mm handgun and a spent shell casing; Shriner was wounded in the arm when officers returned fire and later posted $1 million bail.
